Beaver Creek (2013-01-01)

Our first ski day of 2013 was on New Year’s Day at Beaver Creek which means we earned the “Resolved” EpicMix pin — whoop! There hadn’t been any new snow in a few days and it was a holiday weekend so most everything was skied off or still bare underneath. Most mogul runs had grass […]

Breckenridge (2012-12-20)

The weather and snow turned out to be pretty nice yesterday afternoon. The skies were blue, the sun was out, and after it warmed up (it was -14 degrees in the morning) we started another half-day at Breckenridge around 1:30. Peak 7 was open for the first time so we intended to head over there. […]
